My video's are still on youtube but since you need a channel to share them and to have a channel you have to have google+ you can not see them. I might try to find another source of doing video's. I...

Re: USB SmoothStepper Hookup

Hi Smoothstepper, KFLOP and PCMC1 are all motion controllers, KFLOP for example both understands GCODE directly or you can write 'C' code to enhance it's internal fucntions. pretty cool. Mach 4 need totally new drivers for all devices which is why it is taking longer to release and the parallel port...

if you look at their Feed/Speeds for that bit (which looks to be a PCB (FR-4) bit) http://precisebits.com/Reference/chipbreakerfeedspeed.asp it's 15IPM at 60Krpm and a 20IPM plunge So it looks like unless your router goes into over drive you can't drive that bit. it's going way to slow This would be...

Thanks for posting all these in one easy access place.

I was wondering if you could include information on which tooling you used and speed/feed rates used in each video?

I think it would be nice to have that as a reference.

Painting Steel

Question

In the book you mention a zinc based primer which is not that hard to find.
but for the color you mention a Oil Based Paint.

are you talking a spray can type paint or is this a brush on paint?
can you give an idea of brands of paint to either use or avoid?

Thank you
Sandra
